Novelbound: A Comedy Book Podcast

We talk about this book so often, it's about time we recapped it! We did this to prepare ourselves (and you guys!) for the amazing interview we have coming out for Stephanie Garber's newest book, Once Upon a Broken Heart! While these series are separate, they take place in the same book world, and we couldn't help ourselves from rereading the series again so we could immerse ourselves in it!

Sorry not sorry, this next month is about to be filled with a lot of spooky stories, and this is the first of them! We share our favorite historical ghost stories and even some family tales of our own about experiences with ghosts!

Book recommendations that are the definition of Dark Academia. Brew some tea (or hot cocoa), grab a blanket, get some pumpkin bread ready, and lets pretend like its not still 93 degrees outside!

More money, more problems. And what glorious, frivolous and juicy problems royal people have. Celine is OBSESSED with this trope- so if you like ballgowns, forbidden romance, lots of courtly drama, and the prospect of being a princess.... then these books are for you!

This episode is WILDLY DRAMATIC. That's all I'm giving for the description. Prepare yourselves. 

Guys! This episode is our list of the characters we could hang with- and some of them might surprise ya!

Give it a listen and let us kn...

If you've listened to any of our episodes, you've listened to us talk about this book. We wanted to do a deep dive on the book that is a guide to writing and understanding novels, and we can't wait to hear your thoughts on it!

When it comes to books, friendships and relationships are literally the heart of the story. It's why we read, right? Anna and Celine gathered together all their favorite relationships and are sharing them! There are spoilers, nothing about the end of the book, and they list the books a the beginning of  the episode as well as  letting you know if they'll share spoilers during the episode...

This episode is literally me and Anna just diving into the worlds of our favorite books and what we would love and not live through in them!

Black Witch Caraval A Court of Thorns and Roses Harry Potter and a few more ;)

You guys! Remember that book we (and the entire world) have been screaming about?

The irony is that the second part is even longer than the first part, but we literally had SO MUCH TO SAY about this book. The funniest part is when Celine LIVE REACTS to Anna dropping the end and they talk about the next book (spoiler-free!) All of this in preparation for our book club that we're hosting THIS WEEK!

We're obsessed with this book and honestly couldn't stop ourselves from recapping it!

This is a book that Celine has forced everyone to buddy read with her- if you like historical romance, this novel is SO MUCH FUN. Anna and Celine somehow managed to get Jennieke on, and she was a straight-up TREAT. We can't wait to scream about this book with you!

Don't pretend you don't have it, we a...

Welcome to high school. Terrifying, right? Not in today's episode. We're talking about the "Jenny Han sphere" with Taylor Stentzel and all the boys that make up the iconic high school tropes.
